The Open Portal is packed full of action from the time it begins, and flies off the pages

I wholeheartedly recommend this one to fans of high fantasy. You will want to get in on the ground floor of this new series!

The Open Portal is a fantastic, intriguing, and adventurous beginning to the Conquest of the Veil series!
NerdNarration
A solid foundation for an action-packed fantasy series. While only an introductory novel, The Open Portal, feels like it already has decades-worth of history behind it.
The Page Unbound
When I finished The Open Portal all I wanted was to read more. I feel like Clifton has cleverly crafted such an extraordinary world and is building up to something truly spectacular. I can't wait to see where Clifton takes this story next!
